I keep track of my various blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge as I seem to be working on several quilts at once: the RSC2016 Sampler, Cats & Kittens (will become 2 quilts), Dresdens (will become 2 quilts), 16-patches with black & white centers, vintage sheets rail fence (not shown) and also just 8.5” scrappy blocks that have no particular purpose. Yet.
So, this month’s total orange blocks numbered 79, my busiest month yet. I also did 2 - 12” blocks for my Notting Hill quilt, 10 - 6” blocks for the Splendid Sampler, and cut over 140 orange lozenges (5”x 2.5”) for a future quilt (to add to the 40 that were given to my in an Instagram giveaway). And, I finished my Cityscape quilt, which you can read about in my previous post. All in all, a great sewing month.
May promises better weather, and I plan to be outdoors and in the garden more. That will probably be reflected in my productivity, but that’s just fine.
Why not join us at So Scrappy for Scrappy Saturday??

so many blocks! It's so much fun to see them all in one picture!! I've never done that, but it's cool. Orange is so vibrational it got you sewing more didn't it? LeeAnna
Fabulous oranges! So many beautiful blocks you have here, it's hard to know what to look at first!

That's a lot of orange to pack into a single month. Nice variety too. That said, Molly noticed that you missed the most important orange of all from your round up.
Great collection of orange blocks!! Have a wonderful week.
An amazing prodigious of orange goodies this month. Enjoy your garden while you can, you can sew when it rains.
Cathy, I cannot believe how much orangeness you can fit in one month. Very inspiring.
Oh my goodness! Love your explosion of orange happiness, what a great month!
Phew - another month of amazing productivity! You certainly put me to shame. Any chance of sharing the pep pills you must be taking?
